We’ve already had two Jinx, sorry, Kim Arashikage figures available with 2012’s SDCC Exclusive offerings. But those were not a general retail release. There is still one more Jinx figure, the G.I. Joe: Retaliation Wave 4 Kim Arashikage (aka Jinx) retail figure. Now thanks to jihoon0719 of ACToys, we have some in-hand images of the upcoming Retaliation Wave 4 Kim Arashikage figure too. Along with the highly anticipated Blind Master and Night-Viper, this rounds out the new figures from Wave 4 and the last of Retaliation single carded figures for retail.

It looks like once again that G.I. Joe Blu-ray/DVD release proves to be a hot ticket item. G.I. Joe: Retaliation dominated the weekly sales with its release last week. So once again, all the closet G.I. Joe live-action movie haters came out in droves to get their copies to secretly watch the movie in the sanctity of their homes without judgement. I’m kidding. Well partly at least. Their wasn’t a lot of competition for G.I. Joe: Retaliation” last week, as the animated movie, “Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox and “42” were the only other new movie Blu-ray/DVD releases. It is also possible that the fact there are too many options to buy, so fans are buying multiple copies? Still good to hear that it is having successful sales so far, the same thing happened in 2009 with G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra which helped lock in the sequel for the movie. (Source: THR)

I’m pretty sure many of you didn’t need a reminder, but here it is anyways, G.I. Joe: Retaliation is now available on Blu-ray, Blu-ray 3D and DVD. The digital version has been available for a couple of weeks now, but now you can get your hands on physical copy of the movie. There are more than a few different versions, but I would imagine the one many will want to get is the Extended Director’s Cut which is available exclusively at Best Buy. It has about 20-minutes of extra footage that was cut from the theatrical release. Target also has a special version with dog tags available and extra commentary. So get out there and get your copy of G.I. Joe: Retaliation today!

Sixth scale collector “MAX” has posted some great images of the Hot Toys G.I. Joe Retaliation Joe Colton Sixth Scale Figure.

Also, as you can see, the figure comes with a ton of accessories, interchangeable hands, weapons, ammo clips, etc. So check out the Joe Colton images by “MAX” mirrored below and stay tuned for more info on this latest G.I.

With a big thanks to ACToys member 术门, we have some really nice images of the forthcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation Wave 3.5 “Ultimate” Roadblock figure. Not only is this figure more “movie accurate” than the Wave 2 Roadblock, this one comes with an insane amount of gear and weapons. There is enough weapons there for at least three or four other figures. I’m certainly not complaining, I more than welcome this. Check out the great images of the Wave 3.5 Roadblock mirrored below and look for this figure and the others from this wave to be available soon. (Source: ACToys)
